Chapter 69: Acquaintances in the Inner City (please read)

Uncle Ping's coworkers kept talking for two quarters of an hour before they went into the mountain together.

In the middle of the journey, I also talked about another person, a kind of Thunder Runner, who could turn into thunder and lightning when using his power, as if the God of Thunder descended to earth and stole the show on the battlefield.

It's a pity that this person is from the imperial court.

So the final outcome was to fight the rebels for three days and three nights and die.

This person reminded Chen Lin of the "Little Five Thunder Dharmakaya" he had obtained in the world of immortality.

'Cultivating Dharmakaya requires the training of the Five Elements of Thunder and Lightning. I wonder if the horned ox in Jubao Mountain is considered one of the Five Elements of Thunder and Lightning? '

According to Taoist Chunmu, the Five Elements Thunder is different from the common sky thunder, and can only be seen in strange places or special monsters.

At that time, he thought of the horned cow in Jubao Mountain.

That guy was both angry and thunderous, and he looked extraordinary at first glance.

'If it counts, then it should be fire thunder? '

Chen Lin guessed and finished eating the Ghost Ya Pork he just brought back from the Big Snake Cave.

Then he looked at the empty soy sauce jar next to him.

Suddenly I realized it was time to go to the city again.

"And now that there is new news coming back, I have to go and inquire about it."

The news about Uncle Ping's workers was only learned from the city yesterday.

If we go there now, we should be able to get more details.

The news about martial arts masters may be distorted and exaggerated, but they must be based on reality and will not be nonsense.

When I opened the door and went out, the room next door was quiet.

My aunt went to town to do some starching work, so she took Xiaoluobo with her.

In addition, the door of the medicine digger's house was opened, and many medicinal materials were taken out from the house and dried in the sun.

The couple who had just sold their son and daughter had sullen faces, and there was unspeakable sadness between their brows.

Chen Lin nodded and said hello to them. The two of them only responded briefly, but their gloomy expressions did not change.

When they sent out twelfth lunar month gifts before, the two of them and their five children greeted him with smiles.

Ugh.

Things in the world play tricks on people.

All the way to the outside of Kanazawa County.

There was a queue to enter the city at the North City Gate.

The soldiers who had been hiding in the city tower and lazily came out and stood on the city wall, scanning the people entering the city below.

There were soldiers waiting at the city gate.

However, these people are not aware of their conscience and have come out to abide by their duties.

Simply because the weather is warm now, more mountain hunters are entering the city from the north gate.

and so……

"Don't crowd around. The entrance fee is one penny per person!"

Inside the city cave, the soldiers shouted loudly, accompanied by the sound of weapons hitting the stone tiles.

People coming in and out were accustomed to rummaging in their pockets.

It’s okay if you don’t pay this penny, just enter from the West City side.

There is no city fee collected there, or in other words, the county seat does not collect city fee at all. It is purely a means of making money by the soldiers who defend the city themselves.

Except for winter, each city gate can earn at least one tael of silver per day.

Even mountain people can only endure this kind of blunt knife cutting flesh.

Chen Lin threw a copper plate and walked through the city gate.

Then walk to the mountain city.

Other places in the city gradually saw people coming and going.

On the contrary, the further you go to the mountain city, the less popular it becomes.

Sure enough, we just walked to the entrance of Shanshi.

He saw a rogue standing at the street corner from a distance, yawning out of boredom and looking wildly at the women passing by.

Even the old woman passing by was not spared.

Until Chen Lin and Pipi's eyes met.

"..."

The rogue calmed down for a moment, then remembered something, suddenly turned around, made a haha, and shouted into the mountain city:

"Brothers, it's getting late. We've all worked hard. It's time to go have lunch!"

He clapped his hands and shouted as he walked.

Chen Lin followed him and saw other gangsters coming out from all over the mountain city when they heard his shout.

"Yeah, let's go eat!"

"I'm starving to death!"

"Hurry up!"

In an instant, the gangsters disappeared, and the inside and outside of the mountain city seemed to be suddenly clean.

Chen Lin looked at the dozens of figures far away from him, and his face couldn't help but twitch. "I asked why those people all ran away all of a sudden. It turns out Brother Lin is here!"

"Brother Lin, come over here and have a drink!"

On both sides of the street, shopkeepers walked out of their shops and greeted Chen Lin as soon as they saw him.

It seems that this title has not been changed since the last time I held a hatchet against dozens of thugs and retreated.

It seems that his seniority has been determined.

Chen Lin responded to everyone's enthusiasm with his hands raised, while looking at their faces, they all looked helpless.

"Those gangsters are still hanging around here lately?"

he asked aloud.

Everyone came over and responded one by one:

"Yeah, I can't even drive him away!"

"Those gangsters are now afraid of you, Brother Lin..."

"Last time, someone followed your example, Brother Lin, and took a knife to chase him away. But it was useless. Instead, he was so frightened that he lost the knife."

Chen Lin is almost the only 'customer' in Shanshi now.

Shopkeepers and waiters who had nothing to do gathered around him.

When he went to buy tea, rice, oil and salt, these people gathered around him and even helped him negotiate the price, so much so that several store owners gave him things for free...

Chen Lin, who couldn't laugh or cry, had no choice but to put down the money and leave.

The people behind him also cheered and came out.

Seeing that someone was about to return the copper coins to him.

Chen Lin quickly changed the subject and asked about the war in the south.

Especially the rumors about martial arts masters.

Everyone paused for a moment, and then someone spoke up.

"Those martial artists are all really powerful!"

"I have a nephew in my family, and his friend's father also has a friend. That man's son escaped from the battlefield in the south..."

"It's fake. How can anyone be so powerful?"

Amidst the divergent opinions, a very familiar voice suddenly sounded:

"Brother Lin, I heard in the inner city today that someone is going to put up a sign for a martial arts gym. Why don't you go take a look?"

A figure separated the crowd and walked slowly over.

Chen Lin's face suddenly fell.

"Uncle Xiang, please change your name..."

"But does anyone want to put up a sign in the inner city today?"

"Yes, I heard about this a few days ago. It seems to be called Jujian Sanren. It looks very powerful."

There were people around who echoed.

Uncle Xiang walked up to him, still looking as friendly as before: "I heard someone said that the giant sword Sanren is some kind of Qi realm martial artist. He is very famous in the inner city. This time he set up a sign to compete with several veteran martial arts masters. fighting……"

"Brother Lin, if you are also interested in this, you can indeed go and have a look."

"Aura?"

Chen Lin held his chin and thought for a moment, and stopped worrying about the title of Uncle Xiang.

"Then please Uncle Xiang, please help me take care of the things in my hands. I'll go watch the fun and come back!"

Give all the things you just bought to Uncle Xiang.

He said goodbye to everyone and quickly headed towards the inner city.

……

The inner city is the essence of the entire Kanazawa Prefecture.

It is not as prosperous as Xicheng, but it is more substantial everywhere.

This place is not only the location of the government offices, but also the residence of many powerful people.

If you want to open a martial arts gym here and set up a sign, you must not only have a reputation, but also have the strength and courage to convince the public.

"I heard that today's life and death status has been established!"

"Who took action?"

"It's not clear yet, but the old viper from the Black Snake Boxing Gym must be inside. He just killed Hong Tianyi who wanted to set up a sign three years ago. He won't kill another one today, right?"

"Impossible! Giant Sword Sanren use swords. The fists of Old Viper are no match for their heavy swords, right? And how old is Old Viper..."

Chen Lin passed the inner city gate and walked along the old streets. The news he heard from various restaurants and shops were related to the upcoming life and death battle in the ring.

He moved forward with the crowd.

Suddenly I saw someone who was barely an acquaintance, and I was stunned for a moment.

I had no intention of saying hello.

But the other party also saw him and waved to him:

"Brother Lin?"
