Invincible fantasy world, boss, he is too wild
Chapter 275 Red Slush Furnace
The aftermath of Cuizhu Xinhuang has not yet settled, and Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi have embarked on a new journey. After the storm, they came to a border town, which was sparsely populated but had a unique scenery. It's the middle of winter, and the town is covered in white snow and silver, like a splash-ink landscape painting.
"It's so cold!" Lu Chenxi rubbed his hands and exhaled, "Why is it so cold here?"
Lin Xuan took off his coat, put it on Lu Chenxi's shoulders, and said gently: "This is the northern border, and the climate is naturally much colder than that of the Central Plains. You put it on first, don't freeze."
Lu Chenxi glanced at Lin Xuan movedly, then tightened her clothes and said, "Thank you, Lin Xuan. You always take care of me like this."
While the two were talking, suddenly the sound of horse hooves came from far and near. Immediately afterwards, a group of knights wearing heavy fur coats appeared in their sight. The knights were all tall and rough-looking, looking like border defenders.
"Hey! Who are you two? What are you doing here?" the leading knight asked loudly.
Lin Xuan took a step forward, bowed his hands and said, "I'm Lin Xuan. I'm passing by here with my wife and want to stay overnight. Is it convenient for me?"
The knights looked at each other with doubts after hearing this. The leading knight looked at Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi, and then said: "It's okay to stay overnight, but the conditions here are simple, and I'm afraid I will wrong you two."
"It doesn't matter." Lin Xuan waved his hand quickly, "I'm grateful to have a place to shelter from the wind and snow."
The knights nodded and then made way for them: "In that case, please come with us."
Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi followed the knights to the only inn in the town. Although the inn is not big, it is clean and tidy. The boss welcomed them warmly and arranged an upper room for them to rest.
There is a heater in the room, which is as warm as spring. Lu Chenxi took off his coat and sat by the stove to warm himself. Lin Xuan walked to the window and looked at the falling snow outside the window thoughtfully.
"Lin Xuan, what are you thinking about?" Lu Chenxi asked curiously.
Lin Xuan came back to his senses, smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just thought that the snow fell at the wrong time."
"Why?" Lu Chenxi asked puzzledly, "I think the snow is quite beautiful. The vast white field is so beautiful."
Lin Xuan sighed and explained: "Although the snow is beautiful, it will bring a lot of inconvenience to our trip. Moreover, I always feel that this snow seems a bit strange."
"Weird? What do you mean?" Lu Chenxi became more and more confused as he listened.
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "I can't explain clearly, it's just a feeling. In short, we still have to be careful."
Lu Chenxi nodded, indicating that he understood. She knew that Lin Xuan was a thoughtful person, and since he said that, he must have a reason.
While the two were talking, there was suddenly a rapid knock on the door. "Dong dong dong!" The voice was quick and powerful, as if something urgent had happened.
Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi looked at each other, then quickly stood up and opened the door. The knight who brought them here before was standing outside the door, saying nervously: "Brother Lin! Something's wrong! Something happened!"
"What happened?" Lin Xuan asked hurriedly.
"We... the water source in our town is polluted!" The knight gasped, "Many people are poisoned now! Go and take a look!"
Lin Xuan was shocked when he heard this! Contaminated water sources are no small matter! He immediately grabbed the sword and coat on the table and said to Lu Chenxi: "Chenxi! Let's go! Let's go take a look!"
The two followed the knight to the town's water source - a mountain spring covered in ice and snow. At this time, many townspeople had gathered around the mountain spring. They all looked sallow and were vomiting, which was obviously a sign of poisoning.
"What's going on?" Lin Xuan asked, "How could the water source be suddenly polluted?"
"We don't know either." A town resident said with a grimace. "It was fine when I got up to fetch water this morning. Who knew it would suddenly become like this just now."
Lin Xuan knelt down, dipped a little mountain spring water in his hand, put it under his nose and smelled it. A pungent stench assaulted my nostrils! He frowned, already having a calculation in his mind.
"This is poisoning on purpose!" He stood up and said decisively, "Everyone, please stop drinking! You can't drink this water!"
The townspeople were shocked when they heard this! Although they don't understand martial arts or medical skills, they also know what it means when someone poisons someone. For a time, panic and anxiety quickly spread among the crowd.
"Don't be afraid, everyone!" Lin Xuan said loudly, "As long as I am here! I will definitely find the real culprit! I will give everyone an explanation!"
His words seemed to have magic power, and the townspeople gradually became quiet. They looked at Lin Xuan with expectation and trust, as if they had seen a savior.
Lin Xuan looked around, and then said to the knight: "Is there any place nearby where these poisoned townspeople can be temporarily housed? They need timely treatment and care."
The knight thought for a moment and said, "There is an abandoned warehouse in the town that can be used to house them temporarily."
"Okay! Then please take someone over to clean the warehouse immediately! Get ready to receive patients!" Lin Xuan said decisively.
The knight responded, then immediately turned around to arrange his men. Lin Xuan walked to the spring and carefully observed the surrounding environment. He believed that the poisoner would leave some clues.
Sure enough, after a while, he found a series of messy footprints by the mountain spring! This string of footprints extends from the mountain spring to the distant mountains and forests!
"Found it!" Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Chen Xi! You stay here to take care of the townspeople! I will follow this series of footprints to trace the whereabouts of the poisoner!"
After saying that, he moved and turned into a sword light and chased into the mountains and forests! Lu Chenxi was left waiting anxiously for news about him...
The snow is falling harder and harder, and the cold wind is howling through the mountains and forests, rolling up layers of snowflakes. Lin Xuan followed the footprints all the way, only to find that they suddenly disappeared deep in the forest!
He looked around and saw dense trees and thick snow all around, with no trace of humans at all. Did the poisoner just disappear out of thin air?
At this moment, he suddenly felt a fierce murderous aura coming from behind! He didn't have time to think too much, he immediately drew his sword and swung it back!
"Ding!" A sound of gold and iron sounded! Lin Xuan only felt numbness in his arm! It turned out that the opponent's weapon blocked his long sword!
He looked back and saw a mysterious man in black clothes and a black veil standing not far away, looking at him coldly! This mysterious man exudes a powerful aura! Obviously not a general person!
"Who are you? Why do you want to poison people?" Lin Xuan asked sharply.
The mysterious man didn't answer, but let out a weird laugh! Then he moved and turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Lin Xuan!
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness! He knew that this mysterious man must be the mastermind behind the poisoning incident! So he showed no mercy! He waved his sword and faced him!
The two of them fought fiercely in the snow! The sword light flashes and the snowflakes splash! For a while, the fight was inextricably linked! However, Lin Xuan is a god-level figure after all and has an overwhelming advantage in strength! After a while, he found the other party's flaw! A sword stabbed the opponent's shoulder!
"Ah!" the mysterious man screamed! Then his figure flashed! Disappeared into the snow! Only a trail of bright red blood and falling snowflakes were left...
