Chapter 25

"Although these two brands are good wood, they are too small. I will give you five taels at most." The pawnshop owner took off his glasses and flicked the abacus casually: "This jade pendant, I can give you 30 taels. A total of 35 taels Two, what do you think?"

Shen An lowered his head and did not respond.

"Sir?" The boss knocked on the table.

"Well, what did you say?" Shen An smiled apologetically: "I was just distracted."

"A total of 35 taels, do you think it's okay?" The boss took out three large ingots and a piece of broken silver.

Shen An's Adam's apple rolled up and down, instead of taking the silver, he put the white jade pendant back into his sleeve: "Sorry, I didn't take this."

The boss was a little surprised: "Do you think the money is low? The jade is scratched and needs to be re-polished before it can be used. I gave 30 taels, which is a lot, okay?"

"That's not a scratch." Shen An was a little annoyed: "It's a carving. Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

The boss gave him a blank look, as if he was too lazy to talk anymore, he threw the broken silver on the table and took all the ingots back.

"Five taels, let's go for five taels," Shen An thought, "Let's talk about it after it's used up. At worst, we'll eat rats every day."

When the pawnshop owner wanted to take the pendant away, for some reason, Shen An suddenly felt distressed, as if the softest part of his heart had been twisted by someone, and his whole body felt a little weak.

Shen An strolled back to the street of Yuelai's old store, and saw a circle of people around the entrance of the inn, discussing at one go.He looked into the yard from the top of the crowd, and saw the shop owner's body lying sideways on the table, and the blood all over the floor was still bright red.The buzzing of bees could be heard faintly from the guest room, as well as the clank of swords colliding.

Sensitive wasps?The Promise Sect tracked them down?Hold!

Shen An supported a big man's shoulder with one hand, jumped over the crowd and rolled into the yard, turned the corner, and saw two lumps of yellow objects wrestling together in the air.

"Tangyuan!" Shen An shouted loudly, "Bring it over!"

The glutinous rice balls "buzzed" twice, and the round buttocks slammed into the face of the other wasp, making it circle in the air, and flew in front of Shen An.Shen An pulled out the chilling cicada, slashed it with his hands, and it fell apart in an instant.

"Good job!" Shen An patted the glutinous rice balls: "Find a place to hide, and come to us when it's safe."

The backyard of the inn was a mess, Elder Shen and Han Xiuyu were surrounded by a large group of masked men in black; those men were all wearing a black veil cloak with a silver edge, familiar and disgusting.

"Yo, the assassin was sent out," Shen Anxin said, "The leader gave up arresting us and went back to publicly execute him. He wants to execute the law on the spot."

With a soft "swish", the chilling cicada swirled out and went straight to the neck of the black-robed assassin; the blade on the top of the fan was like a poisonous leaf that sealed his throat with blood, killing him in an instant.

A streak of blood splashed, and the chilling cicada continued to fly forward, nailing into the wall.Shen An jumped up, with his left foot on the chilling cicada, and his right foot slammed into the heads of the assassins, turning over a row with one blow.

"Go!" He waved to Elder Shen and Han Xiuyu.The three quickly rushed out of the encirclement and rolled into the alley behind the inn.

"Amin hasn't come back yet, what should we do?" Elder Shen asked while running, clutching his chest and coughing a few times.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Shen An directly picked him up: "This city is not big, so we can always meet. You were injured again just now?"

"Among those people, there is one with quite strong internal strength," Elder Shen said, "I accidentally shook it when I made a move, it's not a serious problem."

"Damn it," Shen An scolded in a low voice, "Why did the wasps find us? Has the asafoetida we bought last time expired?"

A wisp of green liquid flew over Han Xiuyu's shoulder, almost brushing his face. He looked back and saw that the black-clothed assassins had already chased after them, and they had changed their equipment. The bamboo tube, when blown, sprays out strips of thin needle-like liquid.

"Uncle Shen, be careful!" Han Xiuyu said anxiously.

Shen An ducked to avoid it, and the green water hit the wall, burning a hole in the stone in the blink of an eye.

Depend on!

The three of them ran and avoided the poisonous water, using various postures, and they were more flexible than monkeys in the circus.

"Where are you, Jueming?" Shen An thought while hiding, wanting to cry but without tears: "Use the Suming Bow to save us quickly..."

There was a street ahead, Shen An thought that he would be able to escape from Shengtian as long as he persisted for a while, but a few black-clothed assassins suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking their way, all holding the deadly bamboo tube in their hands.

Long live!

The venom rained down from both sides, Shen An closed his eyes in despair, and spread the chills to cover his face in vain—even if he was burned into a sieve, he couldn't lose his appearance.

With a low sound of "Zheng", the temperature in the alley dropped suddenly, as if the world had retreated from the spring, and returned to the freezing world of ice and snow in the twelfth lunar month of winter.

As expected, the excruciating pain from Wan Poison did not strike, Shen An opened his eyes, and saw that the chills were covered with frost.Han Xiuyu clenched the Hanyu sword tightly, surrounded by a beam of icy sword energy, the venom was frozen into ice cubes, fell to the ground and shattered.

I don't know how much internal energy was consumed by this blow, his face was as white as paper, and the hand holding the sword trembled slightly, but he still held it tightly.

"Uncle Shen, I will protect you." Han Xiuyu said in a hoarse voice, using the back of his hand to wipe off the cold sweat on his eyelashes that affected his vision.

At that moment, Shen An admitted that he was handsome.

The assassin's poisonous water wave after wave, Han Xiuyu gritted his teeth and carried it, and soon the clothes were so wet that water could be wrung out.Shen Anxin said what to do with this, as the old saying goes that a good car must have a way to the front of the mountain?Those old-timers are not farting.

As if to punish him for disrespecting his seniors, Cassia suddenly yelled in the alley: "Get down! I'm going to /cum/!"

Shen An has never slapped such a happy face in his life. He hastily dragged Elder Shen and Han Xiuyu to the street, and then the sharp tremor of the Su Ming bow sounded, and the feathered arrow whizzed past with the power to split mountains and seas. In the blink of an eye, the pests in the alley were swept away.

"Amazing!" Shen An gave Jueming a thumbs up, then helped Han Xiuyu who was almost collapsed, and whispered in his ear: "Xiao Yu is even more powerful."

The call of "Xiao Yu" made Han Xiuyu feel weak all over. He wanted to use his sword to support himself to walk, but now he couldn't move his feet at all: "Uncle Shen carry me on your back." He groaned, paralyzed on Shen An .

"Okay." Shen An smiled, leaned over and squatted down, with a soft "ding", something fell out of his sleeve.

"Damn it!" Shen An quickly picked it up and took a closer look, but luckily it wasn't broken.

"This is..." Han Xiuyu looked at the white jade pendant in his hand: "I thought you pawned it off."

"How could it be?" Shen An said without changing his expression, "I'll take it off and wipe it off."

The sunset is like blood, gorgeous and beautiful; Shen An is carrying Han Xiuyu on his back, and Caesar is supporting Elder Shen, they look like a happy and harmonious family, if time can be frozen at this moment, it would be great.

With a soft "呲", a stream of green poisonous water pierced Elder Shen's chest and spilled on the ground.An assassin in black crawled out from under the corpse of his companion, and quickly disappeared.

"Elder Shen?" Jueming said softly, things happened so fast, he hadn't realized what happened yet.

The bright red color spread rapidly in Elder Shen's heart. He lowered his head for a glance, with a slightly confused look on his face, and then fell straight down.

The dilated pupils are like a black curtain, making the sunset glow reflected in it more vivid.

"Ah—" Jue Ming let out a heart-piercing howl, angry and desperate, painful and crazy.Su Ming Gong's screams rang out one after another in the alley, and the corpses of men in black all over the ground quickly turned into pieces, then meat paste, then blood mist, and finally there was no dregs left. The room was wiped out.

……

That night, Shen An didn't know how he walked back to Yuelai's old shop.Jue Ming fainted from crying, Han Xiuyu was too tired to walk at all, he just carried each other on his back like that, let his legs and feet lead him forward, and returned to the guest room like a walking dead.

At dawn the next day, Shen An was woken up by the sound of "buzzing". It was still dark, and there was only a little pale light in the room.The glutinous rice balls came back and were flying around the room. Shen An knew it was hungry, but she didn't think she should do anything.

He fell into a dazed state, it was almost morning, so what?The glutinous rice balls are hungry, so what?The floor beneath me is uncomfortably icy, so what? ...He just lay there quietly, together with Han Xiuyu and Jue Ming, silently watching the glutinous rice balls flying around.

About the time after lying down with a cup of tea, Han Xiuyu was the first to move.

His internal energy was consumed too much yesterday, and he still hasn't recovered now. Every tendon feels like it's about to explode, and his whole body trembles, as if touching it again will break it completely.He supported Han Yu to barely stand up, and said hoarsely: "We should go, go to Lanxi."

Shen An sat up, but didn't make any further moves.

Just sit like that.

Cassia didn't move at all.

Han Xiuyu sighed, and could only repeat: "We should go, the people from the Promise Sect will come back."

"Then let them come." Jue Ming suddenly whispered, and then sat up abruptly: "I won't go! Let them come! Let them come! I'm going to destroy the Wuji Sect to avenge Elder Shen!" He said Roaring and crying, he beat the ground fiercely.

"What stupid words are you talking about?" Han Xiuyu was a little angry, the pain on his body upset him: "If you can really kill Wuji, why did we run away in the first place? What are you doing here, waiting to die?"

Cassia didn't speak any more, just cried, but still sat still.He was adopted by Elder Shen when he was wandering, and his affection for the elder was much stronger than that of Han Xiuyu, no wonder he was emotional, but the quarrel between him and Han Xiuyu pulled Shen An out of that muddled state .

"I want to feed glutinous rice balls," Shen An thought, "I want to go to Lanxi."

He stood up and walked to the side of Cassia Ming, and patted him on the shoulder: "Get up, Cassia. Let's go to Lanxi, enter Xianyunmen to practice hard, and we will have a chance to avenge Elder Shen in the future. Xiaoyu is right, stay here now." Here, there is only one dead end."

Han Xiuyu stretched out his hand to pull him: "Let's go."

Cassia nodded slowly, and finally stood up.The three of them tried their best to pack their things, when they suddenly heard the sound of tiles breaking from the roof.After a while, a thin green thread flew down quickly, Shen An yanked the cassia, and the thin thread fell to the ground close to his ear, burning a hole the size of a copper plate.

It is the poisonous water of the assassin in black.

"Fuck!" Shen An yelled angrily, and Han Chan threw it up, collapsing the entire roof.The person on the roof jumped into the room with a few light points, and the bamboo hat was overturned by the morning wind.

Shen An stared at that face and widened his eyes.
