Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel.

Chapter 167 Goodbye, Yan Lang

Looking at the prompt given by the chip, Zhuo Xiu felt a chill in his heart. He jumped off the counter and took a few steps back.

His strength is comparable to that of the first generation of evolvers, which means that this seemingly harmless boy in front of him can tear tigers and bears apart with his bare hands, and is no less than the top predators on some wild planets.

More importantly, the hazard rating is A.

The degree of danger is not directly related to strength. Some herbivores, although large in size, have gentle temperaments and are not very dangerous.

The higher the danger rating, the more serious the target's tendency to commit violent crimes. This is an extremely accurate judgment made by the chip based on the frequency of the target's brain waves.

When a person is preparing to commit a crime, the state of his brain waves is extremely abnormal, Class A, and he may suddenly attack and hurt others at any time.

For a moment, Zhuo Xiu's heart was beating like a drum, and she was not too worried about her own safety.

She once took tourists to observe ancient battlefields with their own eyes. As a second-generation genetic evolver, she had also experienced real war trials and participated in interstellar wars.

She doesn't have much experience in life-and-death fights, but with her strength greater than Chu Zheng's, she should have a good chance of subduing him.

The key point is that the few passengers behind her are not evolvers, but just ordinary people. Even though their physical fitness is much higher than that of the natives of Dong'an Star, it is difficult to be compared with the extraordinary people.

In other words, it's easy to die.

And if any one of them gets injured, it will affect her future career.

Chu Zheng noticed Zhuo Xiu's nervousness, glanced at the passengers behind her, and quickly understood what was going on. He patiently repeated the question:

"What would you like to buy?"

Zhuo Xiu didn't want to provoke Chu Zheng, so she rolled her eyes slightly. An idea suddenly occurred to her mind, and she remembered the ring on the counter. She immediately spoke:
"How much silver is that ring?"

Hearing this, Chu Zheng looked down at You Dawu who had already died, and said slowly:
"This item is a pawn, and the price is fifty taels of silver. If you like it, you can buy it."

"I bought it."

Zhuo Xiu didn't waste any more words with Chu Zheng. He reached into his sleeve, took out a silver ingot, placed it in front of Chu Zheng, then took the ring, turned around and left.

"Guest, wait."

Chu Zheng's voice came from behind him. Zhuo Xiu's mind focused and he turned around suddenly, his eyes full of vigilance.

"You forgot to take the receipt."

Chu Zheng lowered his head and wrote the receipt in a few strokes, then stamped it with Fukang Pawnshop's seal.

Be disciplined in doing things.

Zhuo Xiu turned around to take the ticket, looked back every step, and left the pawnshop with a few passengers.

Only after leaving the pawnshop did Zhuo Xiu breathe a sigh of relief.

"Is that child really that dangerous?"

"Ms. Zhuo, are you a little too nervous?"

After leaving the pawn shop, the travelers all looked disbelieving, as they had not seen the corpse at Chu Zheng's feet with their own eyes.

If Zhuo Xiu hadn't reminded them through the chip, they would have started asking questions in the pawnshop just now.

"His aggressiveness is no less than that of some ancient large carnivorous creatures. He is the top predator on land."

Zhuo Xiu's expression was very serious, and he said with a hint of warning:

"I am considering your safety. The natives here are very dangerous to you. I hope you can also pay attention to your own safety."

The passengers didn't seem to care much and just nodded casually.

In this regard, Zhuo Xiu just felt powerless.

After living in a peaceful environment for a long time, people's defensive psychology will unconsciously decrease. Now most citizens in the Tianyao Federation do not have much sense of crisis.

These people living in the ancient dynasty are actually quite dangerous. This danger is not only in terms of strength, but more on the psychological level.

When she participated in interstellar wars in the past, she had seen many evolvers who were stronger than her die because of carelessness.

We must be extremely wary of a group of uncivilized thugs who are not bound by the law.

However, it would be a waste of effort to say this to these passengers now. The habits they have developed over the years cannot be changed overnight.

It was only seven days in total, and it passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhuo Xiu turned around and glanced at the pawnshop. He wanted to go to the government of Yuncao City and ask the local natives to punish the dangerous element in the pawnshop.

But after hesitating for a while, she gave up the idea.

She was a tour guide, and her main purpose was to take tourists to complete their sightseeing tours. Getting involved in the trouble among these natives was just a waste of time.

What's more, it was just a native who died, it was worthless.

Inside the pawn shop.

After watching Zhuo Xiu and the others leave, Chu Zheng looked down at the huge silver ingot, seeming to be thinking about something.

Zhuo Xiu's method of taking the silver just now was very casual, and he saw some clues. It was a method similar to storage space.

According to the information previously given by the panel, Zhuo Xiu is the second-generation genetic evolver of the Tianyao Federation. His strength has reached the first level, which is equivalent to a cultivator in the Lingquan realm of the immortal way.

This is just a tour guide. Judging from the battle sequence of a civilization, a tour guide cannot be considered a combat force.

The Tianyao Federation might not only rely on the space battleships he saw in the starlight. The creatures in them might be taking another path of life evolution.

This may be of some reference value to his path of cultivation.

A stone from another mountain can be used to polish a jade. The wisdom of the ancients is worth learning from.

However, if he rashly contacts Zhuo Xiu now, it might not be a good idea and it might alert the enemy. He needs to lie dormant for a while and wait for the opportunity.

Since Zhuo Xiu is here as a tour guide today, bringing these people here and also preparing corresponding clothing, it means that this place should be a very famous tourist destination in the Tianyao Federation.

Even if Zhuo Xiu left, there would be no shortage of tourists in the future. There was a long time to come and he had plenty of time.

Chu Zheng stood up, closed the shop door, and hung up a closing sign. Then he rolled up a straw mat from the shop, rolled up You Dawu's body, and placed it in the corner.

It was still early outside and it was not suitable to dump the body. In addition, he also had to prepare a nightgown to make it easier to do things at night.

In addition to You Dawu, Yan Lang and the others must also be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise there will be troubles later.

Chu Zheng was not worried about getting into trouble, but just like what happened to Shugen before, if You Dawu died here, Yan Lang might implicate other innocent people.

When faced with a poisonous snake in the gutter, the best way to deal with it is to kill it with a stick and put an end to it once and for all.

…………

…………

There are more than a hundred inns of all sizes in Yuncao City. The inns in the west of the city are the most expensive because they are closer to the port. When you open the window, you can see the endless flow of the river and your own boats.

Ping An Inn is one of the most prestigious inns, so the price is naturally not cheap. As the sky gradually darkens, the setting sun shines through the blue brick ancient buildings, drawing a brilliant silhouette.

The lobby of the inn was filled with tables and chairs, filled with traveling merchants and heroes from the martial arts world. They toasted each other and talked about everything from the imperial palace to the common people.

As for the truth or falsehood in these words, you can only judge for yourself.

On the second floor, there are literati and poets who recite poems overlooking the Nujiang River and compose couplets while watching the sunset.

The scene of the ancient dynasty at its peak is vividly displayed in an inn.

In a corner of the lobby, four big men were sitting around a table. There was no green on the table, only fish, meat, stewed chicken and roast goose.

The few of them looked like starving ghosts reincarnated, eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls, with oil dripping from their mouths. Just by eating, they looked like bandits.

However, in this place where all kinds of people gather, there are many people who eat uglier than them, so they are not very noticeable.

During the meal, one of them looked up at the sky outside and said vaguely:
"Why hasn't Da Wu come back yet?"

He had a brown turban on his head, dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes. At first glance, he looked very honest.

Sitting opposite him was a thin man with half-white hair and wrinkles all over his face, which showed a bit of old age. Upon hearing what he said, he immediately took over the conversation:

"Maybe he went to visit a brothel secretly."

Before he finished speaking, the shirtless burly man on his left sneered:
"Do you think Da Wu is you? You can't live a day without Yao Jie'er's mouth."

"Besides, he doesn't even have two copper coins in his pocket, so where did the silver come from? If he dares to steal the silver and eat, won't he be chopped off by the wolf?"

Three people spoke one after another, but the big man sitting by the window said nothing, lowering his head to eat meat. His face, nearly forty years old, was covered with traces of wind, frost, rain and snow. There was a long scar on the left side. His eyes were narrow and long, and his eyebrows were as sharp as swords, showing a bit of fierceness.

In the blink of an eye, the last rays of the setting sun were swallowed up by the earth, leaving no trace.

Two silver moons rose into the sky and hung high in the sky.

In the lobby, guests came in and out, and it became more and more lively as time went by.

In the corner, the three people who had spoken earlier were no longer chatting. They all had cold expressions and their eyes were fixed on the door. Only the scarred man seemed to be still eating, as if he had not eaten enough.

A moment later, a group of people walked into the inn, all with smiles on their faces. Leading them was a woman in her twenties.

"Wolf Head, look at what that bitch is holding in her hand."

The thin man suddenly let out a low shout, his expression somewhat unsightly.

Hearing this, the scarred man who was gnawing on a chicken leg paused, raised his head, and his eyes fell on the hands of the woman who came in.

A jade ring with a gold-rimmed edge was rolled and played with on the slender fingertips.

After looking at it for a while, he chewed the chicken bone in his mouth, swallowed it, and spoke slowly:
"Wait until late at night, and when the hemp has capsized, drag it aboard and test the bottom to make sure nothing escapes the net."

Hearing this, the three men stood up one after another. The thin man went to the kitchen, the shirtless man went straight upstairs, and the man who looked a little honest went straight out of the inn.

More than an hour later, the four of them gathered again in the private room on the third floor.

"I have inquired about it. They just entered the city today. They are very generous and should be rich. I have seen that many of them are very strong, but they don't have internal strength, so it's not difficult to deal with them."

The honest man spoke first, then added with a frown:
"Da Wu hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid he's in danger. I don't know if it was done by these people. That little girl seems to be the leader, I can't tell her strength, she might be a little tricky."

"Then arrest a few first, leave a note, and force them to leave the city for talks."

Yan Lang pondered for a moment and changed his mind:
"There's a Grandmaster in the city, and if there's any disturbance it'll cause trouble."

…………

…………

It is late autumn now.

As the night deepened, the cold wind blew and penetrated into the bones and blood.

A black shadow landed silently in Ping'an Inn. Chu Zheng's eyes were as fast as lightning. He looked through the window and began to search for the traces of Yan Lang and his companions.

After searching for a while, several figures flew out from behind the inn, each holding a person in the hand, and ran straight out of the city at a brisk pace.

There was a gleam of intelligence in Chu Zheng's eyes, and he quickly found the information he wanted.

[Yan Lang (Level 0): Former Imperial Guard of the Yuan Dynasty, tomb robber, had a strange encounter in his early years, possesses a sixty-year internal force, and is comparable to a martial arts master.]

Except for Yan Lang, all the people being carried, according to the information given on the panel, were, without exception, citizens of the Tianyao Federation, and were obviously tourists who came here for sightseeing.

From this it seems that Zhuo Xiu should also be in this Ping'an Inn.

Just as Chu Zheng was about to follow, a figure suddenly rushed out of the inn and chased after Yan Lang and his companions without any deviation.

Zhuoxiu...

Seeing this, Chu Zheng restrained his breath and slowly followed.

Tracking and locating is obviously not a difficult task for the Tianyao Federation.

What a coincidence.

Chu Zheng couldn't help but sigh. Yan Lang was really bold. He probably didn't even know what kind of person he had offended.

No matter what, Zhuo Xiu has already stepped into the first level. For mortals, the first level is an immortal, and there is no way these people can deal with him.

Even a master or a grand master is nothing but a chicken or a dog in front of a first-level creature.

Zhuo Xiu could kill Yan Lang and his men with just one finger.

In a blink of an eye, Chu Zheng followed Zhuo Xiu's trail, left the city, and after running for several miles, he stopped at a mountain pass.

He found a treetop, quietly crawled in, and watched from the sidelines.

The direction of this matter was completely beyond his expectations, and all he could do now was to watch the show.

Yan Lang stood at the mountain pass, not even breathing hard, his face cold, his palm tightly clasped around a man's throat. With a little force, he could crush him to death.

At this moment, he felt a little frightened. The speed of this woman was too terrifying. Even if he used all his strength to use his lightness skills, he could not get rid of her at all. He was caught up in just a moment.

He knew very well that this time, he might hit a wall.

"Let him go. I can give you whatever you want."

Zhuo Xiu's voice was steady, and she didn't seem anxious at all, but in fact, she was extremely upset.

The lives of these tourists are more precious than each other. If there is any mistake, her career as a tour guide will come to an end.

The moment she received the news, she had already activated the alarm system. All she had to do now was to delay time and wait for a reply from the central processing station.

Yan Lang tightened his palm and shouted:
"I want one hundred thousand taels of silver."

"I give you!"

Zhuo Xiu did not hesitate at all, reached into his sleeve, and pulled out a stack of banknotes:
"One hundred thousand taels of silver, release him, and I will guarantee your departure."
